Well, it happened. I'm in isolation. I work in the microbiology lab at a regional hospital and I'm exposed to COVID and other nasties every day. I'm symptomatic for COVID and I'm awaiting the test results. Feel like shit and don't care to smoke. Hell, don't feel like doing much of everything.

Please, wear your masks!
well if it feels like the flus crackhead cousin it's probably a +

Much luck to you for a speedy recovery.

I was much more frightened in the first few months of the shutdown. I've made the threat routine and have forgotten about it. When I'm around people I wear a mask, which today is a requirement and not just etiquette. I sanitize my hands before and after such contact, and if there's sanitizer I wipe the handle of the cart I use at the grocery store.

To be really safe one needs to sanitize each time you touch a surface whose state of infection is indeterminate, which means that I'm not sanitizing a half-dozen times that I should.

No joy. Test came back positive. Wife and kids going to get tested.

Thanks for all the well wishes. Made my morning.
well that sucks. Though if you're sounding so lucid at the moment I'am sure you'll be fine after a few weeks of total hell. I will tell you this that first pipe you smoke that doesn't feel like it's ripping the back of your throat out and then beating you with it, is simply Devine. Pick a favorite.
